Lauren Kinney

Lauren Kinney is a writer and musician in Los Angeles. She received her MFA in creative writing from Antioch University Los Angeles.

When asked what her first publication would mean to her, Lauren responded:

I finished my MFA in creative writing in December, and I now feel that I’m in limbo. Though I would continue writing even if I never got published, getting that first short story published would feel so encouraging. I would have something to send to friends and family to show them what I’ve been working on for these years. I’m sure I would still struggle with finding the time and confidence to write, but I wouldn’t feel invisible anymore.
